ChrisCurzon's AM04 Ibiza Cupra

[ChrisCurzon]

I had to take off all the original electrical tape, and separate out all the wires. From the ones I could separate out, I ran underneath the manifold, and the others I have just done back up with some electrical tape and cable tied them up against a thin hard pipe which runs discretely along the manifold

was a bit of a pain to do, but looks a lot neater now. Still some work to do on it, but looks better for now

Well the inlets coming off in the new year when i swap it over to the polished one so i might give it ago then, cheers mate

What's wrong with the standard mirrors?

On a serious note, looking good mate!

Also starting to tidy up the engine bay a little, so sprayed my rocker cover, cam cover and a few brackets black

Decided to spray my power steering cap black too, as it always stood out being green, did look a bit odd

What did you use to sapray the rocker cover mate??

and when you did the power sterrin cap did you just leave it off, or did you cover it with something?

I just used some hammerite, had some lying around so did a few coats with that, it dried really glossy and smooth.
Just took the cap off and put a bit of masking tape over it so nothing went into it, i did the rocker cover at the same time so the car was off the road for a couple of days anyways

 

[stani540]

So you did both with hammerite may give it a bash over xmas!
